Baton Rouge Flood Victim Wins Powerball

This is a great example of the Bible passage, 'The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away.'

KATC reports that Central resident James Lapeze won the $1 million Powerball jackpot earlier this month.

Lapeze is 72 and said he's going to use the $700, 000 he'll have after taxes to repair his home and enjoy his retirement.
